Zusammenfassung

Die Übersicht stellt notwendige Komponenten einer ökotoxikologischen Bewertung für kontaminierte Sedimente vor. Die jeweiligen Stärken und Schwächen der ökologischen und toxikologischen Verfahren werden herausgearbeitet. Die bestehenden Biotestmethoden werden auf Grundlage der bekannten Expositionswege zu einer Testkombination für die Anwendung in der Praxis ausgewählt. Ein integriertes Bewertungsschema, bestehend aus den Komponenten Sedimentchemie, Sedimenttoxizität undin situ Untersuchungen, macht eine flexible und abgestufte Vorgehensweise möglich und berücksichtigt den Stand der Forschung. Die Gesichtspunkte der Überwachungsbehörden und die der ökologischen Forschung ergeben eine dichotome Zielsetzung, die z.T. mit den glcichen Methoden bearbeitet werden kann.
